I finally did it 1800!

Good afternoon everyone! After a little more than two years of playing chess from rock bottom at 200 elo I have finally climbed to 1800 ELO! My goals were to celebrate every 300 ELO, so I celebrated at 1200, 1500, and now 1800! I've been really happy with my chess lately, I've been improving quite fast after I started to really take chess seriously August of this year. I bought several chess books, the most useful one being The Complete Book of Chess Strategy by IM Jeremy Silman, I highly recommend it. If anyone has any tips for me to reach 2000 ELO and above, please share. Thank you for reading!

I read Levy's book when I was in low intermediate level, which helped me get to 1500. I also have a great book that's called Logical chess which is a study of 50 master games move by move.

I do not have any of his other books

I am rated over 2400 online (https://www.chess.com/member/ppandachess). I created a free course that will teach you a training plan to improve. Feel free to check it out: https://www.panda-chess.com/daily-improvement-plan

I think that my free training plan can help you improve further.

7, try getting silmans endgame course and how to reassess your chess. For end games and positional chess, that is all you would need

I'll take a look! I'm good at endgame, but I always could get better. I'll definitely consider it.
